Form & Verdict
Has form figures of 3212211 and her latest success was by over 4l at Pontefract (1m4f, good) 19 days ago; up 6lb but she still looks feasibly treated and is a big player again on this drop back in trip; all of her runs have been on good or slower and any rain would be a positive.

Registered a hat-trick in good-ground handicaps at Lingfield (1m2f), Pontefract (1m4f) and Chester (10.3f) this May/June; however, Listed race at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm; 10-1) on latest start saw a heavy defeat.

Form figures of 32122111, defying a 6lb rise when completing a handicap hat-trick in cosy fashion at Chester (extended 1m2f) three weeks ago; a fair bit more will be needed now stepping up in class but she can't be discounted as a thriving sort from a leading stable; has raced only on good or softer.

Form & Verdict
Won at Ripon (1m, good) and Newcastle (1m, AW) in first two 2yo runs but she's been held in handicaps in last two starts; may have needed her reappearance run at Ripon (1m2f, heavy) in April but this is highly competitive and she needs more progress after another break.

Placed in five Listed races this season and can give another good account, but she's 0-10 since winning a handicap last July and it's likely this 5yo is vulnerable once more, especially now back up in grade.

Form & Verdict
No win in her first six starts but she's won two of her last three, including a smooth success at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm) last time; hit with a 10lb rise for that but she had a lot in hand and the form has been boosted by the runner-up since; respected.

Third on her first two runs this season (1m6f/1m4f, good to soft/good) and a case can be made on that form but down the field on her last three outings and she needs to get back on track now back down in trip.

Form & Verdict
Plenty of promise in her first four starts before getting off the mark in Carlisle novice (1m1f, soft) last month; didn't have to be at her best last time but she's bred to stay this new trip and should have more to offer in handicaps; respected for yard that won this in 2019 and 2022.

Made most and improved when second of nine at Newmarket (1m, good) on second start as 2yo; big shout on that but, at evens, she did not live up to it when third of five at Bath (1m, heavy) four weeks ago; bred for 1m2f+ but raced freely last time; still has to be seriously considered.

Form & Verdict
Generally relaible 6yo who recorded her sixth win when scoring off 4lb lower at Carlisle (1m, soft; first-time blinkers) two weeks ago; has won over C&D in the past but this is a big step back up in grade and she takes on some unexposed improvers here; could be vulnerable.

Six-time winner who is suited by good or slower ground; has mixed record this season but she won at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and went very close at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; on same mark as for that last run and she's a big player if she can repeat the form.

Won over C&D on good ground in 2021 and came from off the pace to end long losing streak at Carlisle (1m, soft; first-time blinkers) in June but her form has dipped since that latest success and others in this field have more persuasive profiles.

Out of same connections' well-connected Group 1 winner Echelon; ended her 2yo campaign with a Newcastle win (7f maiden) but she failed to beat a rival on handicap debut at Southwell (1m) in April; still unexposed after only four runs but she needs to kick on again on this step up to 1m2f.
